as many as 2400 jobs in connecticut. governor snyder, do you support this act and governor malloy, and perhaps why. >> thank you for that question. what i would say is a couple things. one is there are infrastructure requirements where we do need to invest. our schools, our colleges, many other places in our communities where they need to invest. a couple things typically missing are the right metrics and measures. have you to forgive me, i'm an old accountant so i like to measure things in terms of knowing what we're doing. but one of the challenges is we've had numerous cases in the past where people would build capital facilities without having the operating sources to use those facilities or apply them. so we need to be much more thoughtful about making sure, what are the highest and best asset allocations as opposed to simply making sure we're doing projects. and that they're going to the jurisdictions that can need them most. we have certain school districts that would take -- potentially in these programs that rea

once you're on connecticut avenue, continue to travel northbound on connecticut avenue, make a right on university boulevard, then a right on georgia avenue. you can reconnect to the beltway at this time. also, another serious accident involving a tractor-trailer on fire. right now has all of your northbound i-95 lanes shut down. this is at route 80 near the maryland toll house. going to keep watching this accident for you. this is going to impact you if you're thinking of heading out of town this morning. another thing you're dealing with on the road is fog. a live look now at 395 at edsall. no accidents in this area. but low visibility. please give yourself extra time to slow down this morning. joe and eun, back to you. >> thank you. >>> 4:43. come to coming, cashing in on her note right, the money amanda knox is getting to share her story in a book. >>> plus, an unexpected surprise. the unexpected addition to the white house tour c >>> welcome back. the american exchange student accused of murdering her roommate in italy signed with harper collins to publish a memoir about the fou

what you can either do is take southbound connecticut avenue to east west highway or northbound connecticut avenue to plyers mill. work your way around to georgia avenue and back on to the beltway to get around because you cannot go any further on inner loop than connecticut avenue. no access northbound connecticut to the inner loop as well. so keep that in mind for your traffic plans this morning. we're going to take you live outside right now if you're planning to head over to again connecticut avenue, this is where just beyond the accident scene on the inner loop near connecticut. let's take you over to the maps again, this time over on the south side of town. northbound 395, if you're planning to head over to duke street and the 14th street bridge, it's going to be the fog you're dealing with but all lanes are open along 95 and 395. coming up in my next report, another look into bethesda at 5:09. back to you. >> thank you, monika. >>> a town house fire sent two children to the hospital early this morning. >> prince george's county firefighters rushed to the hil- mar drive in district he

instead, all traffic is being diverted off of the beltway at connecticut avenue.ccident activity occurred back in the 3:00 hour involving another vehicle and a tractor- trailer. one of the vehicle caught fire. you will find again that the investigation is lengthy and ongoing at this time. traffic coming off the inner loop of the beltway heads op toen con avenue from there and then it branches off. when i came through there is the line to go northbound was considerably longer than the line to go southbound and out towards 410. depending on where you need to be, 410 could be an alternate route for you at this time. if you hit the beltway at jackie joyner kersee avenue to continue around towards new hampshire avenue, you do so well past the accident scene. -- if you hit the beltway at jim moran avenue to continue around towards new hampshire avenue, you do so well past the accident scene. >>> the government -- as georgia avenue to continue around towards new hampshire avenue, you do so well past the accident scene. nt scene. >>> on to the economy now and the payroll

when he goes back to connecticut, he makes something plainer. there are a lot of different vocabularies based on what their customers desire in their homes. it is not they could not make something fancier, it is that they are targeting their mode of manufacture to appeal to the pocketbook as well as the design vocabulary of their customers. so, in my talking about refashioning instead of the very expensive john marshall life of washington, you get someone like mason weems. the peddler and author who really refashions biography into the whole series of popular biographies such as the life of george washington, which starts out as a pamphlet and then gets expanded. or you also start to get portrait painters like ralph earl. ralph earl who trains, first starts out in massachusetts, then moves to great britain during the revolution. he's a loyalist. 183, he looks around, decides this is a time to come back to the now united states. again, although he is trained in the british style, he is able to paint in a brushy mode like sir joshua reynolds. make

right now, the inner loop is closed at connecticut avenue. let's get more now with julie wright and the latest on this. >> the inner loop of the beltway remains closed at connecticut avenue at this point. again be traffic coming from 207 as you merge on to the inner loop from 355 can go no further than connecticut avenue. we do see that we do have some m-dot trucks still here at the scene. there were a number of police cars setting out flares. it is well marked for you that you will have to exit off the beltway here at connecticut avenue. at the end of the ramp at connecticut, can you turn left and go northbound on 185. or a lot of people, didn't see them doing this and i don't know why because this is a good alternative route as well. you can go southbound and continue over towards the exits there in college park. that could be a good option for you. the inner loop remains closed because of the investigation. the outer loop looking good. as our morning -- as the volume increases, i'm anticipating we'll find delays not only on the inner loop

the delays last past connecticut avenue.raveling i-66 eastbound, jammed at sully road, jammed to 1 23. an earlier accident looks to be out of the way. it is slow commuting eastbound. if you're heading out of town, be aware -- taking i-95 north now, it's closed at exit 80, the maryland tollhouse. back to you. >> thank you. >>> this morning an elementary school in virginia is closed because of a norovirus outbreak. a number of students and teachers at the cople elementary school in the town of hague in westmoreland county have come down with the virus. as a precaution, the school will be closed today. virginia health department officials say if your child experiences any symptoms, keep him or her home for at least 48 hours after the symptoms have ended before sending your child back to school. >>> metro is helping george washington university in a cleanup effort to prevent the norovirus from spreading. this week, nearly 100 students have gotten sick. school officials are asking students to wash their hands more often. metro wi

governor malloy, you in connecticut are on the cutting edge in so many ways. and you have a progressive work life -- you have progressive work life policies and a new law that requires businesses to pay sick leave when employees can't work due to illness. i'd like to hear straight from you if -- if the state economy has been compromised or if the state economy and health care system have benefited in regard to this sick leave policy? i mean, have you lost jobs? >> no. since the passage and ultimately the enactment of that law, we have actually gained jobs and lowered our unemployment rate in the state of connecticut. it is a special program. it takes a period of time for employees to earn the right to paid sick time. but let me be very clear. we did it not as a matter of convenience, but we made the ultimate decision that having people who prepare your food come to work sick doesn't make any sense. people who care for your parents or grandparents in a nursing homecoming to work sick doesn't make any sense. and people caring for our children in day care program

this is just past connecticut avenue. right now it looks like you're able to get by on the left lane. some people are even getting by on the left shoulder lane. you're jammed as you make your way toward connecticut avenue. once you pass the accident, it's on the right side of the road. the lanes open up for you, and your commute's not so bad. taking the beltway in prince george's county, a live look now at 201. no issues on the outer loop or the inner loop, just battling fog. inner loop speeds, 63 miles per hour. if you're taking the beltway in virginia, same story, fog is slowing you down. but not too much. inner loop speeds in this area at van dorn, you're at 62 miles per hour, only taking six minutes from the wilson bridge to van dorn street. over to you, eun. >>> traveling into the district on metro this holiday weekend could take you a little extra time. three stations on two lines will be closed for track work. on the orange line the clarendon and courthouse stations will close at 10:00. metro will provide shuttle b

the inner loop between connecticut avenue and rockville pike.o they're able to get the situation under control. we understand that at some point there was a vehicle fire. we understand that a tractor-trailer was involved, and this other vehicle. one person has died as a result of this accident. again, this is on the inner loop between connecticut avenue and rockville pike. if you are coming around the beltway trying to head toward connecticut, they're going to go ahead and have youo off of the road at connecticut avenue in order to get to where you need to go. so this is a

we had about two inches of snow that has fallen in some portions of connecticut and hudson valley.ere the roads are the most slippery. that's going to head out and temperatures will warm up in the morning. we'll start to melt some of that. it will change to rain. it's not going to be as warm as yesterday in many areas of the country, including new england. we'll still be mild out there. we could see a period of rain late today. we may have a break around d.c., baltimore and philly as we go throughout the morning. the snowy spot, the snowiest is here in northern illinois, southern portions of wisconsin from milwaukee to rockford to chicago, a band of moderate snow that has to go through. that's also where you'll have a difficult morning commute. as far as the forecast goes today, we're clearing it out, we're dry throughout much of the middle of the country. the eastern half of the country, late today, we could have severe thunderstorms rolling through the north carolina/south carolina area, maybe even isolated tornado as that strong cold front will bring in that colder air. as far a

they're diverting you off on to connecticut avenue.i'm going to show you a map and tell you your options right now. i have a feeling this may be there for a while. if you decide to head on the southbound side of connecticut avenue, you can take that over to east west highway. if you decide to go north on connecticut, you can take plyers mill road over to georgia avenue and work your way back around to the beltway. the inner loop of the beltway completely blocked off with this serious tractor-trailer crash that happened just before 3:00 this morning. i'll show you a live picture out in maryland. again, if you're planning to head near connecticut avenue or georgia avenue, i think that's going to be your alternate routes to head south on georgia back on to the beltway. i'll keep you posted on this situation throughout the morning and my next report is at 4:39. back to you. >> thank you. see you then. >>> we begin with breaking news n. is a house fire in prince george's county. two children were hurt, one of them critically, a 3-year-old.

i will also tell you connecticut is spending more of its own dollars in rebuilding its train system on a matching basis than any other state in the nation. i'm quite certain that if you send infrastructure investment dollars to the states we are capable of putting thousands of construction workers and private contractors back to work. >> the gentleman's time has expired. >> thank you, mr. chairman. governor snyder, thanks for here, and same to governor malloy. the state legislator in indiana has recently -- and this is a state issue -- taken up right to, woulto work. governor snyder, are there any discussions in your state which neighbors mine, concerning this type of action at the state level? >> it is under discussion. there are a number of legislators that are promoting it. in my perspective, it's not on my agenda. right to work is an issue that's a very divisive issue, people feel strongly about, and i'm the relentless positive action person, so we have many problems in michigan that are much more pressing that i want to find common ground issues we can work together on before we g

for getting to the jobs that may have existed in connecticut? >> by the way i agree with the governor on this point as i have on many of the points he has made. in our bipartisan jobs though we actually allocated funds to take an award-winning program at one of our community colleges, which has been in existence, this program for 12 years training precision manufacturing and returning folks who may have lost their jobs and lower lever on manufacturing to be in precision manufacturing with a 98 to 100% replacement rate on completion of that probe ramp at what i found when i became governor set program had not been replicated in any other the committee colleges in the state and our bipartisan jobs program we passed and i referenced in my prior testimony, we are going to replicate that program and three additional community colleges with operating dollars and we are going to replicated in three of our vo-tech school so we will graduate people from high school or community college is who will be prepared to take those precision manufacturing jobs. w
